Interesting! The band just posted this picture on their Twitter of Tony and Gwen posing with dubstep superstar Skrillex. A collaboration for new music maybe? We’ll keep you posted!
Gwen also shared a photo of new swatches for the upcoming L.A.M.B. collection.

NOOOOO please NO!!!
Cool! Gwen’s outfit is sooooo awesome!
It would be awesome. We all know that Push And Shove (song) is kinda influencied by dubstep, it has some beats. And everybody loves that track. It would be awesome to hear another dubstep influencied song in my opinion.
Neeeewwww muuuuuusic
no no no no PLEASE DON’T BE TRUE!!!! OH GOD -_-
Fok a skrillix collab? No fok that!
Oh what has happened to real music…real talented musicians collaborating with a non talented one..
I kinda figured no doubt would do a dubstep song they have always been trendy! I think this is clearly a collaboration. And I do think No Doubt is making a radio friendly album. (Updated Rock Steady 2.0 maybe?)
Yay, his track with Damian Marley is stellar:

Also love his song with A$ap Rocky but that’s more hip-hop oriented. Don’t really like his full-on dubstep (or brostep) tracks but his last couple of tracks are rad!
I craaaaave for MOAR major lazer tho 🙂
Ed, I am OBSESSED with “Make It Bun Dem” — it’s so good!
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
No clue who that is, but from reading the comments this does not sound promising…
I guess it would depend on the degree of Skrillex in the song… 10%? OK. More than that? Oh no…
I am really torn… I love how ND still are adventurously exploring new genres, but Skrillex… I just can’t stand him.
Yes they have always been trendy as hell….but they always like to sound like themselves, so we’ll see.
oh god. please dont let this collab be true
I’m going to hold my judgement until I hear the new music. And I’m also not getting hyped up at all about it. Maybe this collab is going to be awesome, who knows?
EXACTLY!
This has several levels of horribleness written all over it. No Doubt needs a producer like David Kahne, or even Tim Armstrong. And would someone please throw away very musical instrument Tony owns that is not a bass (sequencers, synths, digital-anything.)
It seems like No Doubt have lost faith in themselves making good music by themselves anymore. I miss the pre-collab music when it was real nd, the collaborations are like someone elses songs and aren’t even as good.
Honestly, I think we should all just wait to see what comes out of this. No Doubt has turned out some amazing work while collaborating with others that I remember us freaking out about before. I trust them that they know what they are doing and maybe they chose to work with him? We should just give it a chance. We also don’t even know what technically what they are doing together. Working on a new track? Remix? Or just hanging out?
Even if you’re not a fan of dubstep or Skrillex, it would bring something new to the table (for the band) that might be very special. We have no idea what could come out of this. Everyone should just breathe for now. Woo-sah!
im not a fan of that boy even i have never heard it, but dont be silly he is better than nothing
and i like that photo gives me a good vibe and he loooks fresh and interesting
I’m with Jenny, everyone needs to chill and see what happens with this. I don’t like Skrillix either, but I can’t complain unless I’ve heard the final product.
I would cry myself to sleep if No Doubt worked with Skrillex. I loved him when he was the lead singer of From First to Last, but as Skrillex, he has ruined “dubstep.” He doesn’t make true dubstep, he makes BROstep. I would look into the history of the genre and see some prime examples of what dubstep used to be, before guys like him made it into something really obnoxious and lacking musicality. People in the UK laugh at American frat guys and call it bro/bruvstep because it’s been a genre for over a decade there and the way Skrillex does it isn’t true to form at all.
Sorry, I had to.
Bradley, I agree. Most of his music sucks balls, but I can’t judge just yet because we haven’t heard anything. What if this ends being really good? I thought P&S was going to be amazing because Spike Stent worked with Depeche Mode. Look how that turned out…
I think there are a lot of amazing tracks on P&S. Settle Down, P&S and Heaven for instance.
If ND did do something with Skrillex i’m sure I’d love it because I love whatever they do – but also, we don’t even know if they’re working together yet. There hasn’t been an announcement about it and they’re not in a studio in the picture. So maybe they won’t even work together?
Also, Gwen looks fabulous in this picture. Perfect hair and perfect outfit.
Bradley, thanks for the dubstep 101. I wouldn’t have said it better. Still, I think a collab between ND and Skrillex would be amazing. A lot of people were skeptical about the Major Lazer collaboration when it was announced and were blow away when they heard the track!
Yes! excellent will do a good gather
I LOVE NO DOUBT !!
If ND is going to impress !!!
